💡 Potential savings with Kick/YouTube embed
Using a free embed saves $13,760/month vs Amazon IVS. Cheapest self-hosted: Bunny.net at $1,099/mo.
Notes: All estimates optimized for UAE/MENA delivery. Bunny.net uses Volume Network ($0.005/GB flat global, 10 PoPs) — adds some latency vs Standard Network but negligible for buffered live video. Amazon IVS bills UAE viewers at EU/Israel/Türkiye rates (same as NA). Mux and Cloudflare use flat global pricing. IVS uses Standard channel with Multitrack Video. Mux uses Plus quality tier. Assumes 100% watch time. All prices in USD.
